NORTH RONALDSAY - 20th June


A nice day, warm, with a decreasing westerly breeze; not much to mention though, a few hours in the west coast census route in the morning just saw a Dunlin acting suspiciously in Gue Park but I think he was just a lone male without a mate.   Went back into Hooking in the afternoon where we got some more Black-headed Gull chicks and best of all, a smart two thirds grown Shoveler chick – a smart ringing tick!
